Mosg2's DK Manifesto

@Mercbeast:
Mastery is the best stat for this team setup in my opinion. Period. Strength would be second due to it buffing Necrotic Strike.

@All:
I'm surprised to hear the "nerf" calls. People have been dominating with Shaman for what? 4 years? DK's just use a different tool set to accomplish this domination.

It's not that they are calling for a nerf, it's that they are saying it will be nerfed because that is unfortunately very broken. People will be stacking multiple DKs in 5v5 teams, so that by season end the best comp will be Disc Priest + Holy Pally + 3 DKs.

The inability to heal through DK damage is good and all, but how long does it take you to actually kill a target, vs how long does it take them to kill you? You have to really drill on a target for a long time without letting them get away to make this team work. Without being able to blow someone up, your strategy is pressure. The more time you are spending on a target, the more time they have to snare you, or to be life-gripped, or to blink, or ice block, or get hand of protection, or to intervene away... etc.

Slowing down fights has not been a very successful boxing strategy so far.
